    3. Glad to see the Harvey list back up. I have just finished keying in the descendants of Humphrey Harvey of Sommersetshire England. This line includes the two brothers William b. 1614 England and Thomas b. 1617 who settled in the Dorchestor area of Mass. in 1636. It can be seen on my geocities webpage along with the descendants of Silas Harvey and my Garwood, Shinn, and Platt lines. The address is in my signature. My earlist know Harvey ancestor is my 3rd Great Grandfather Silas Harvey Sr. b. 1795 Ma. according to the 1850 Ashtabula Co. Oh. Federal Census. In Oct. 1813 he was inducted into the NY. State Militia in Clarence Twp. Niagara Co. (Erie Co. after 1821) NY. Alson in the same area at this time was Joshua Harvey b. 1769, James Harvey b. ca 1862 d. Jan. 1813 in an epidemic along with his wife, Caleb Harvey b. 1784, Christopher Miner Harvey b. ca 1791, James Harvey b. 1790, and Amos Harvey b. 1794. By 1820 Silas Sr. was in Conneaut Twp. Crawford Co. Pa. with a wife Rachel Paden b. ca 1797 Luzerne Twp. Fayette Co. Pa. daughter of the Quakers Isaac and Rebecca Garwood Paden. By 1830 Silas had moved a few miles to the west into Richmond Twp. Ashtabula Co. Oh. In the mid 1850's Silas and Rachel divorced and both returned to Crawford Co. were Silas d. Apr. 1862 and Rachel d. sometime after 1860. James Harvey b. 1790 left NY. for Lapeer MI. ca 1839 where he died in 1855.
